Chemical Processes

Black hair offers much in terms of versatility. Curly, straight and wavy are just a few textures you can explore. When it comes to color, you're only hampered by your creativity. Even though natural hair free of chemical straighteners is gaining in popularity, some people will never leave their straightened tresses behind. Caring for relaxed, texturized and/or color-treated hair requires regular pampering and gentle handling to keep it in tip-top shape.
